Speaking on CBS's Early Show, the singer said: "My mom has been the best supporter through all of this. She's always been supportive of me ever since I was a little 2-year-old at dance recitals.

"It's hard because you have to deal with bullying being a teen anyways and now to have the world... That's not normal.

"Luckily the haters don't have to watch 'Friday' or 'My Moment'. They can turn it off if they want. They don't have to hate. It doesn't bother me anymore."

Black also had a message for her fans, saying: "I think the best advice I could ever give anybody is to not let [criticism] get to you. It's OK to be sad about it for a little but but don't let it change you permanently."
